photographer, writer & nomad
A few weeks ago, I was invited to photograph a controlled burn by the Quartzsite Fire Department. A dear friend in town has a husband who is a firefighter, we decided to “watch the boys play with matches”.
So, take a minute and enjoy a little visual siesta! (Click on the lower right hand corner of the gallery for the full-screen version!)

In 2006, I traveled to Nepal for an internship at Nepal Human Rights News and to work on a grant funded project of cultural preservation of the Tibetan exile community. I actually ended up photographing and interviewing various communities and families directly impacted by the decade long Maoist rebellion. Several months prior to my trip, the government collapsed and the country was in flux when I arrived- working to figure out the new political landscape that would include the Maoists. Here are a few of my favorite shots from the documentary aspects of my work in Nepal. Twenty percent of any photo sales will be donated towards the NGOs I worked with while in Nepal.
Enjoy! ps- if you click on the right hand side of the player- bottom corner- you’ll get the full screen version- way better!

Just a few photos from my last visit to Ground Zero. I’ve visited several times in the past 9 years and the sheer size of the gaping void in the skyline never ceases to shock me each time I see it.
